Sony TA-N77ES Amplifier
http://kenrockwell.com/audio/sony/ta-n77es.htm http://www.thevintageknob.org/sony-TA-N77ES.html   
The Sony TA-N77ES is Japan’s greatest power amplifier of all time. The TA-N77ES was Sony’s last effort at pushing the envelope of serious power amplifiers at the end of HI-FI’s glory days. 
These are nearly impossible to find at any price, especially with meter lights that actually work, because they were so insanely expensive when new that few people could afford to buy them. The Sony TA-N77ES is Japan's greatest power amplifier of all time. It's a 55-pound behemoth with huge meters that sounds and  measures extremely well. 
Sony cleverly sold the design to Accuphase in 1989, who still sells it today in their model P-4100. The Accuphase P-4100 uses the same isolated power supply for the drivers ("Spontaneous Twin Drive"), the same triple-parallel bipolar output stage, the same idle-power draw, and even the same speaker, meter, input and attenuator controls — and of course the same wonderful huge meters. Accuphase reduced the P-4100's output power for economic reasons to only 90 WPC, and of course raised the price by ten times over what Sony asked for this landmark TA-N77ES. 

Questions for the seller
Hi, great generic description of the model but what about the particular unit for sale? Cosmetics? Service/ownership history? Thanks!
I am selling the amp for my uncle, who is a audiophile. His passion for music and superior sound drives him to seek out the best of the best when it comes to electronics. The amp has been very well taken care of, he bought it before the system he currently has, which I helped design (I was in Home Electronics A/V sales for a while). It looks and functions like it's brand new, and has never been damaged or pushed to extremes. I am positive that this amp is in better condition than any you'll find, and it's a great piece of equipment. Sorry for the long background story - I was hoping that's the kind of info you were looking for. Feel free to ask any more questions, etc. Thanks, Stephanie
